Two Questions.

[Mike 84C]

Somebody said there is a 3d printed model of No 90, I trawled 48 pages of Shapeways but maybe missed it? Or is on another printers site?

Also somebody posted which Kaydee's they used on the MM 121, which are they please?

  Thanks for any pointers.

A few others were mentioned here.

The no. 90 3D print is the work of Mark Dunlea in the Railway Modellers Ireland group on Facebook ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/1111393745593442 ). Of what I am aware he is printing it out himself so for people so don't think it is available on shapeways etc.

These are a few photos from the cork blackrock and passage railway facebook group, these are the two models mark dunlea has produced thus far, they will cost 80 euro for the shell whenever he decides to start selling it.

Hi Mike, Viz the 121 I would have thought  No 18 - 20 as these have the NEM tails so a direct swap for the TLC  close/ too close couplings with 18 perhaps with 19 or  20 for that awkward crossover reverse curve....

FWIW track on 22 road fishplated at weekend ....

Westcorkrailway, thank you for posting the photos of No 90 that looks as if it could have potential.

Robert, you have confirmed what I thought I had remembered viz; the Kaydees. 22 road? sounds like you were working at Waterloo or simla!

That's a very neat little No. 90!!!

Not bad at all. On a Terrier chassis?

must be a terrier chassis, hornby have released re tools recently enough so i reckon there the chassis from the last generation of terriers 

[Mayner]

I would recommend checking whether the loco is designed to fit a Terrier chassis before buying.

The full sized locos were slightly smaller than the Brighton locos shorter in overall length, smaller wheels and shorter coupled wheelbase.

Its possible the 3D printed model was designed to fit the Hornby chassis as building a chassis for the loco in 4mm would have been challenging due to the small size of the loco and absence of suitable wheels.

Tim Cramer built a 4mm 21mm gauge model of No90 in lined green which featured in the Railway Modeller along with a "Bandon Tank" & J26 in the early 1970s (possibly May 72) but later moved up to O Gauge.

Or use a P class ? Even smaller wheels and shorter wheelbase than a Terrier ....https://www.hattons.co.uk/375593/hattons_originals_h4_p_016_secr_p_class_0_6_0t_31556_in_br_black_with_early_emblem/stockdetail.aspx

Its not a P class as the wheels are much different to the ones seen in the number 90 model, although if you wanted to you deffinttly could use a p class chassis although a terrier would be much cheaper. i just looked at the terrier chassis and the wheels seem to be the same.

I think the suitablity of the terrier chassis can be seen in the photo above by the distance from the cab the tension lock coupler sticks out by.

[Andy Cundick]

Just compared my No90 with a terrier . wheelbase for the terrier is bigger as is the overall length however the the cab and tanks are roughly the same size and obviously 90 is much wider so perhaps a Hornby chassis would fit(My terrier is a Ks /Branchlines hybrid).Still to be honest 90s chassis is an easy one to scratchbuild.Which reminds me i need to finish 100 where would Courtmachserry be without them.Andy.

I was in touch with the person producing this on FB (very nice guy), last I heard it should be suitable for the older type Terrier chassis. I think it needs be shortened slightly but appears to be quite doable.

 

[Westcorkrailway]

Just saw these on another Facebook page. Its 3d prints put if offers 0 guage option and the old GSWR option of the J30 class if anyone needs one
